Helpful hints and tips

Cookware for induction cooking zones
In induction cooking a powerful electro-
magnetic field generates an almost in-
stant heat inside the cookware.
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, a multi-layer bottom (marked
as correct by a manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob
if ...
• ... some water boils very quickly on a zone
set to the highest heat setting
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
The bottom of the cookware must be
as thick and flat as possible.
